What if you find a job before your unemployment benefits run out?
You notify the unemployment commission, stop collecting benefits (unemployment is not an entitlement, it is something you receive as a benefit to help you get through a period when you are unemployed by no fault of your own), and move happily into your new position of employment.
Suppose your unemployment benefits do not cover your living expenses?
that's not uncommon. Unemployment benefits are intended to keep an unemployed individual afloat during their temporary time of unemployment. However, not all unemployment is created equal and the amount you receive depends on the state you live in, the amount you were paid before, and how long you worked there.
Can you collect unemployment from California if you temporarily move to Illinois?
Yes, you can collect unemployment insurance if you have worked in Hawaii but moved to California. Even if you think you do not have enough in Hawaii's unemployment insurance to collect. I worked in California all my life and was offered a job in Hawaii in October 2008. I worked until March 2009 and then tried to collect while i lived in Hawaii. I was denied befits in Hawaii in March 2009, so I moved back to California and could not find work so i collected unemployment in California. It was a knowledgeable person in California EDD that recommended that i file in Hawaii versus California because of the amount i would collect there was a lot more than i collected here. I told them I was denied benefits over there because i did not work long enough over there (hence; i did not put enough money in Hawaii's Kitty) So California's EDD said they would transfer what I put in California's unemployment insurance to Hawaii's unemployment insurance, then that would make me eligible to collect.

What will happen if do not report earnings to unemployment?
If you do not report earnings to unemployment it is considered fraud. No worries, they will probably not throw you in jail, however they will require you to pay it back. Most employers send a new hire form to the unemployment office when you are hired, so they are aware that you are now employed. They also report all wages to the unemployment office, which is generally reported a quarter later. They have an integrity team that reviews all of this information, so you may not be contacted now, but be assured they will be in touch with you in the future. They can also suspend your unemployment benefits for periods of time and require that you pay all monies back before getting unemployment in the future.
How To Draw Unemployment Insurance?
With the recent downturn in the economy and the loss of jobs, people are turning to unemployment insurance to make a living. Unemployment insurance is provided through each state, and it is a fund that you as the employee actually pay into. The company you are working for will send in money to the state for unemployment. This money aids in the unemployment fund for the state, allowing you to draw unemployment insurance. The length of time you receive unemployment insurance depends on the state you live in as well. Unemployment insurance is a safety net for those who are working and lose their job through no fault of their own. The longer you work at a job before you are laid off or the business closes, the more money you will make each week on unemployment. When you lose your job you can go to your local unemployment office to file for unemployment insurance. The only way you will be able to draw is if you were not at fault for losing your job. Once all the paperwork has been filed and the unemployment has been approved, you will need to file each week in order to receive payment. You can file each week that you are unemployed by calling the state phone number or logging in on the internet. You will receive a debit card that your weekly payments will be posted on each week. Every state lets people draw on unemployment for different lengths of time. The basic unemployment lasts for 20 weeks. After this initial 20 weeks is up, you will be routed to tiers of unemployment. The tiers are dependent on the unemployment rate for each state. If the state unemployment rate is at a percentage that is greater than that of the country, you will most likely be able to draw on all four tiers of unemployment. You will receive the same weekly amount when you switch to the tiers, but the weeks will decrease with each tier. You will need to keep filing each week after you have been transitioned to the tiers of unemployment. More information can be found about unemployment at your local unemployment office.
Does NJ have TIER 3 unemployment program?
Yes it does but it may depend on certain conditions. I am eligible for TIER 3 unemployment but maybe because I was in the military. Military personnel receive unemployment benefits differently, from a different "pot" of money. I received notice of eligibility while I am receiving Tier 2 benefits. If you are eligible you will receive it months before you exhaust TIER 2 benefits.
